Nurse Quality
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ nursing grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. Our nursing rating features a host of subcategories. The most heavily weighted one is the number of hours nurses spend with residents. This nursing home provided 6.7 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This was one of the highest figures we found. In addition, we found that a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. These are both really impressive figures. On top of providing impressive levels of nursing care, this facility also excelled in several of the quality measures we assessed. With below five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is usually a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls. Many pressure ulcers could be prevented by offering better nursing care and having a system of moving residents more often.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also was given an A+ short-term care grade, rendering it one of the few nursing homes to be awarded several A+ category scores. In computing our short-term care scores, we size up the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. This area is considered to be a solid measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents that eventually returned home from this nursing home. In addition to excelling in the area of physical therapy hours, we found that it fared as well as just about any facility in the country with 69.5 percent of its patients returning home.
Facility Inspections

These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth category, this nursing home received an excellent long-term care rating. While this is not as good as many of its other scores, this is still one of our more favorable scores we offer. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the statistics we considered in addition to this nursing home's quality nursing hours was vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 99.259254 percent of its patients. Vaccines are a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations.
